Are pickled onions healthy

Answer 1

GOOD

Onions are known as a medicine. They not only block cancer dramatically, lower cholesterol, thin the blood and warn off blood clots but they also fight chronic bronchitis, infections, hay fever and Asthma. It is also known that onions calms animals down. An owner of a large group of old world primates said that she relies on onions to keep her primates healthy during the winter. Especially when primates have been exposed to viruses or when your monkey is in a lot of stress, onions can be the solutions.

BAD

Besides the fact that they may promote gas, onions raw or cooked can cause Heinz body anemia when overeaten. While eating onions (but also turnip, cabbage, garlic, ...), red blood cells get destroyed and this causes anemia. However, red blood cells get regenerated all the time and a number of red blood cells have to be destroyed before this happens.

Answer 2

Pickled anything is not too healthy. The reason for this is the pickling process uses mostly salt, vinegar, sugar. The high amounts of salt are not particularly good for your blood pressure in some people. Also, Because of the acidic content of vinegar, people who eat a lot of pickled foods have a higher rate of Gastric (Stomach) Cancers. For this reason it is okay to eat sometimes, but not frequently (as is recommended for most foods).

Answer 3

Yes, onions are very healthy.

• Contain vitamin C and quercetin which are antioxidants. Quercetin reduces the incidence of precancerous lesions in the GIT and therefore has some anti-cancer properties
• Contain chromium, a trace metal which improves the cells reponse to insulin and therefore increases insulin's sensitivity, increases HDL-cholesterol levels (good cholesterol) and lowers the total cholesterol and triglyceride levels.
• It also inhibits the breakdown (resorption) of bones and therefore is useful for people with osteoporosis.
• Contain vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6, B9, B12, E & K. Vitamin B6 helps reduce the risk for Heart disease by lowering homocysteine levels in the body (which result from eating meat)
  
• It also possesses anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties

Answer 4

Umm, sort of. You see, onions are good for you, but it really depends on how they are made. A lot of resteraunt versions of this snack are fried, and so are a good amount of homemade recipies. That leaves you with lots of unneeded calories and saturated fat. So essentially yes, but only if you're looking for a bunch of calories.

Of course they are. Onions are a vegetable!!
